Grace Potter, a Woodstock doc’ darling and Vermont-lovin’ hot hippie, is back with her new powerhouse rock anthems that are made for amphitheaters, and she recently performed a new track, called “Empty Heart,” on Conan! Speaking of acoustically ready rock venues, Grace and her band The Nocturnals will play Nashville’s new Ascend Amphitheater for its inaugural season on October 10 with Lake Street Dive as the opener. You can buy tickets to the show here. In the meantime though, check out her performance of “Empty Heart” to a Conan crowd craving something old, new, borrowed, and of tomorrow. You’ll always leave satisfied from a Grace Potter experience, whether it be her life-giving, soul-reviving shows, or her albums that nod to her favorite years of raucous rock, the 60’s and 70’s. Grace is finally receiving the national attention she deserves after years of touring, solid albums, and passionate pursuit. Buy her new album Midnight, and view last night’s Conan video after the jump!
